Feature changed by: Stefan Behlert (sbehlert) Feature #313546, revision 6 Title: Get rid of SuSEconfig.scim openSUSE Distribution: Evaluation by engineering manager Priority Requester: Mandatory Projectmanager: Mandatory Requested by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) - Engineering Manager: Joey Zheng (jzheng) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: There is no point to run that code after installation of every package (and it's not run when you use zypper or 3rd party tools anyways). That code should be only run as a part of post-install of affected packages. Relations: - Remove SuSEconfig (feature/id: 100011) Discussion: #1: Takashi Iwai (tiwai) (2012-06-19 13:51:13) SCIM should be simply replaced with the new framework, e.g. IBUS. Keeping SCIM in SLE12 is a heavy maintenance load. If we go for IBUS, rather the question is how to migrate seamlessly. #2: Joey Zheng (jzheng) (2012-07-02 09:50:08) I am OK with replacing SCIM with other new framework and saw lots of discussion in the maillist. But I would like to confirm that if IBUS can provide as much as what SCIM provide for different languages inputting. As I can see, there should be no problem for Asian language to use IBUS, but not sure if there is any problem for European Languages. (This may need some help from European colleagues to confirm, I guess?) Also Takashi, would you be able to guide Fan Jun to do the replacement? He may not be very familiar with our SUSE scripts and configuration locations. To make it seamlessly, I think your help is highly appreciated! BTW, I see some requests from community to use fcitx instead of ibus, so I think we also need to evaluate this too to avoid too frequent changes for input framework, which will not confuse our customer too much and make our lives much easier. :) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313546
